Here's a treat for those of you who are looking to save a little moolah, but don't want to skimp on your oh so necessary spa indulgences. This is a great do it yourself at home recipe for a quick pick me up grape face masque for under $5. All you need is a pestle and mortar (or a mini Cuisinart) and about two handfuls of red seedless grapes.
Grapes are a well known antioxidant that contain a natural ingredient called pycnogenol which is a skin purifier that helps to deep clean, tighten and refine the tone of your skin.
If your face is lookin' a little tired and you'd like to pep it up, use your fridge for a fast, easy and inexpensive instant fix.
- Mash the grapes up good so that they are very fine - almost like a paste.
- Use a paintbrush (one that's never been used preferably) with soft bristles and paint your entire face (stay away from your eyes) with the grapes.
- Next, lie down for ten minutes and let nature do its thing.
- Rinse off with cool water, pat dry and follow with your favorite moisturizer.

I wonder if you would be able to do this with green grapes. Do they have to be red?
1Hi Spartk540,
2I am sure that green would be ok, but I've been reading up on this and it does mention how red works best. But hey, if you've got a bunch of grapes going sour then better to use them then not, right?
Well, i have tried this and it has made my skin juicy...its glowing. i can see the difference in my present skin and my earlier oily skin. Don't know about others but it worked for me atleast.
